Facing hard truths

“Meaning is discovered in experience” – unknown

Being confronted with a hard truth is one of the most challenging, exciting, thought-provoking, derailing and life-changing things that can happen!

See here’s the thing, at the end of the day there is something we all must admit: Throughout our lives, we are going to get knocked down……… a lot.

BUT!

It’s in these moments where opportunity presents itself and you have the potential to create a story that can change you forever. This is a very very good thing. I can’t emphasise enough how important and necessary these moments are. No-one wants to hear the story of someone that was given everything their whole life, worked for nothing and became hugely successful.

At the end of the day, we are all defined by our attitudes towards our circumstance rather than the circumstance itself. It’s all of the learnings attained through self-awareness that will shape your next step and direct you towards to the person you will evidently be. And if you fuck up, guess what? You can’t have strength without falling first and the character-building circumstances you face will prepare you for a future that will be truly embraced with open arms.

Doubt kills more dreams that failure ever will. Personally I’d rather fail at something I want than settle for something I don’t, there will always be other opportunities!!

Take the risk in being seen by others and putting yourself out there. The benefits of doing this are so incredibly positive and will present an opportune moment to seize your full potential.
